The Fire Snake 90A (BRM1) laser guided rocket is a precision guided weapons system based on the Type 90-1 Rocket, akin to the APKWS guidance kit for Hydra-70 rockets. The weapon was developed by NORINCO subsidy Harbin Jiancheng Group in an effort to reduce the effect of crosswind on Type 90-1 rockets.

=== Pros and cons ===
The Fire Snake 90A serves very little purpose in air realistic, being unable to destroy heavily armoured targets, such as ground based MBTs, it can be used to target light vehicles, airfield AA, pillboxes, etc. However due to the nature of the rocket it is unsuitable for consistent usage, as the distance between target and shooter will have closed to the point of unsatisfactory results by the time the rocket makes impact.

====== In Ground Battles ======
 
The Fire Snake 90A performs poorly against Main Battle Tanks in ground battles, however, the rocket performs exceedingly well against soft targets, such as SPAA, Light Tanks, etc. Users may benefit from taking a singular Fire Snake 90A pod, and utilising it to neutralise enemy AA, before using laser guided bombs on heavier targets.

Description

Write an introduction to the article in 2-3 small paragraphs. Briefly tell us about the history of the development and combat using the weaponry and also about its features. Compile a list of air, ground, or naval vehicles that feature this weapon system in the game.

Vehicles equipped with this weapon

General info

Tell us about the tactical and technical characteristics of the missile.

Effective damage

Describe the type of damage produced by this type of missile (high explosive, splash damage, etc)

Comparison with analogues

Give a comparative description of missiles that have firepower equal to this weapon.

Usage in battles

Describe situations when you would utilise this missile in-game (vehicle, pillbox, base, etc)

Pros and cons

Summarise and briefly evaluate the weaponry in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark pros and cons as a list.

Pros:

Cons:

History

Examine the history of the creation and combat usage of the weapon in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the weapon and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Weapon-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />.

Media

Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.

See also

Links to the articles on the War Thunder Wiki that you think will be useful for the reader, for example:

  • reference to the article about the variant of the weapon;
  • references to approximate analogues by other nations and research trees.

External links

Paste links to sources and external resources, such as:

  • topic on the official game forum;
  • other literature.
